Send from PC vs. Email Marketing Servies (eg: Mailchimp)

2 replies
Hi All!

I've got a simple online ecommerce store that sells physical products online to consumers.
I've always created, managed and sent all my email campaigns from my computer using Sendblaster & recently I've used MailRelay as the SMTP server.

Recently I've been thinking of perhaps moving to a email marketing service such as Mailchimp or even MailRelay's service.

But I was just wondering what are the real advantages of using them above sending from my own computer and using a legitimate SMTP server (such as mailrelay's)?

I understand that they have segmenting functionality and tracking stuff - but I do a lot of that through Analytics (probably not as good as theirs though!)

But I am mainly interested if people think open rates will be better? Will delivery into inboxes increase by using someone like Mailchimp?

Thanks in advance for your information and ideas!

    Sending mails from any services will help you to save from getting your domain or email banned. Thats why i think you must take services from any company as compared to doing from usual email IDs.
